Decided to try and pull a quickie hunt after work since one of my fields has water and birds. I kicked out 500-1000 or more when I rolled in at 355. I grabbed a minimal spread and carried it all out in one trip and got setup by about 420ish. I had to put my layout in about6" of water but i was there to shoot birds, not watch em shortland me.

Strong wind and a overcast sky made the birds work well but most wanted to land 20 yds beyond my goose dekes in wide open water which put em about40 yds...I kinda hate shooting that far if I can help it. But luckily there were enough birds around I had my mallard limit in 20 minutes .

I had to Reach out and touch 2 while the others cooperated and fell dead within25 yds. Saw some other kinds of duck but unfortunately none presented me with good shots.
